A Homeopathic Approach to Cancer by A.U. RAMAKRISHNAN, MD, and CATHERINE COULTER

Dr. Ramakrishnan has more experience in using homeopathic medicines to treat people with cancer than any other contemporary clinician. We finally (!) have an excellent book on this important subject.

This book is primarily written for serious students or practitioners of homeopathy, but anyone can learn something from this book. The authors do more than describe the “approach” that homeopaths use, they describe specific remedies for specific types of cancer, and they discuss specific case histories in detail.

This book has chapters on most types of cancer and have separate chapters on those cancers that tend to respond well to homeopathic medicines (brain, oral cavity, larynx and vocal cord, thyroid and parotid glad, oesophagus, mediastinum, breast, lung, stomach, pancreas, liver, colon, rectum, bladder, prostate, ovary, uterus, cervix, bone, leukemia, Hodgkin’s lymphoma, melanoma, and skin) and specific instances whose cure lies beyond homeopathic care (vocal cord, oesophagus, breast, lung, stomach, pancreas, liver, colon, ovary, uterus, bone, and leukemia).

The authors also have a chapter on specific remedies for pain control during advanced or terminal stages of cancer. There is a chapter on treating patients who also use conventional medical treatments.
